PicoLimbo is a lightweight limbo server written in Rust, designed primarily as an AFK or waiting server. Its core focus is on efficiency by implementing only essential packets required for client login and maintaining connection (keep-alive) without unnecessary overhead.
While not aiming to replicate every Minecraft server feature, PicoLimbo supports all Minecraft versions from 1.7.2 through 1.21.8, excluding snapshots, with only 36 implemented packets covering over 47 different protocol versions or 75 Minecraft versions.
Supports all Minecraft versions from 1.7.2 to 1.21.8 natively, no need for ViaVersion or additional compatibility layers.
Uses 0% CPU while idle and handles hundreds of players under 10 MB RAM. View benchmarks.
Player skins are supported. What else to say about that?
Integrates with all major Minecraft proxies:
- Velocity (Modern Forwarding)
- BungeeCord (Legacy Forwarding)
- BungeeGuard & BungeeGuardPlus authentication
Customize your server using a simple TOML configuration file, including welcome message, spawn dimension, server list MOTD, and more. View configuration docs.
Load a custom world from a schematic file and customize spawn location (1.19+ only).
